    Server-side "submit form" simulator

    I have a need to simulate the submission of an html-like <form> on the server, and was wondering if
    anyone knew of something out there that could do that.

    Thanks for your help,
    Don

          Hi,

          You can try Curl (http://curl.haxx.se/)

          Or you can try a pear lib (php) :
          http://www.php-editors.com/pear_manual/p_package.http.http-client.html


          regards,
          Philippe

              This HTTP client class does exactly what you need. It may also capture
              and send back cookies, handle redirection and authentication.

                      PHP 4.3.6+ knows how to do a HTTP post natively. See
                      http://www.php.net/stream_context_create/.
